Since you got a new job in June, you probably got a raise as well. This should create more of a refund as I bet they took taxes out of your base as if you were there the entire year.

any pit employment lawyers? i am accepting a role with a software company in copenhagen that my current employer is considering a competitor. i signed a non-compete, but it is limited to the 12 months after terminating my employment. it also has language around territory and market. obviously this will be a new territory and the market is different than what i served under my current company's employment. i.e. my current company is in europe and does have a software offering that competes with my new employer but i never worked in that market. do i need to get with an employment lawyer?
I guess this is a good problem to have, but I'm not looking forward to turning in my resignation notice on Monday.
Backstory, currently working in Charlotte and grew up in High Point. Getting married in September. Had a company from back home reach out while on vacation last week and after two phone screenings, they extended an offer that's about a 35% raise with a hefty signing bonus. After a counter offer or two, I have verbally accepted and will be signing the paperwork this weekend. I love my current company, but returning home was always in the plans due to our families locations and the free child care that comes with that. Earlier than expected, but I couldn't pass up the offer. What sucks is I'm slated to start a new position with my current company June 1st and a ton of changes have been made to restructure two teams around that position. I know this is worst possible timing and will mess a lot of things up. Any advice, other than the truth? I'm not looking for a counter offer, my mind is made up. Just trying to minimize damage for a company that really treated me well (for the most part) over the last two years.
just tell them you're moving to High Point, I'm sure they'll understand
You got a new job after two phone screenings?? Damn. Congrats!
I had a previous interaction with the company a year or so ago and have worked with their CEO in the past. Both parties knew the interest was mutual before the screenings, timing was the only issue until now.
cover letter tips? links or cliffs? what to do about 1-2 things in job qualifications that i don't fit?
Are the qualifications you don't fit "must haves" or nice to have? How easy or difficult would it be for you to get them? What is your judgement about their importance to the job? And your ability to do it?
If it is possible get them, having a plan to get them is one way to address them.
They are things like "knowledge of healthcare industry and HIPAA" and "experience in healthcare setting preferred."
I fit most of the other qualifications, my experience is just in a different field. Should I just try to translate my current experience to show competence to learn complicated rules/regs?
